Oh I know! totally. That was my fav part too.
Unfortunately, right now, where the price data doesn't get scraped it enters
"?", and displays like that's the best deal in the universe. We need to figure
out why it sometimes doesn't scrape the price. A bunch of sets aren't even on
the list for that reason.
Ugh! I can't wait to get this puppy up and running for good. right now, we're
kinda at the mercy of Todd's schedule..
I always felt strongly that if we were going to do a price guide, it had to be
100% complete, accurate, and dependable. else it'd loose its credibility and no
one would use it. ever again. Do you think I should "re-invent" it for its
return? ala (TOOLO -> Action Wheelers)
And another thing: Todd used the name Brickwise, but I never liked it. It
seemed too 'far off' from what the tool did. What do you guys think?
